It was when I noticed that differance, insofar as Derrida actually admits there's a definition, looks very like how a Bayesian update would feel from the inside.

Also, postmodernism says "nothing is certain" and Bayesian epistemology says "and this is precisely how uncertain."

Basically, I've either struck gold or I've struck crack. This may be what being a crank feels like from the inside. Which has entertainment value in itself.

Pedagogical barrier: Bayes involves mathematics. Postmodernists are frequently innumerate to actually dyscalculic.
